I'm going the other way...down to V. I feel bad for whatever division I demote into.

Well, I auto-promote. I cruised through the series this season, but I don't expect to stay in DIV long. Now that I have the free time to take hattrick seriously, I actually go somewhere. Despite playing for some time, this is the 1st season I have been able to make notable progress with a trainging program (stupid military obligations). However, I won't really have any offseason sales to help. So I'm already planning my return to DV.

I feel bad for the wife. She finished 2nd for the 3rd straight season, despite an NSI of around 155-160 the last half of the season. It gets worse also. The series winner, Gummibear Alliance will probably be back next season since they play WVU Soccer Club in their Qual. She claims to have $6-7 million this offseason to upgrade her midfield, so hopefully she can climb ahead of Gummibear next season. She very well could have a top 20 DV squad next season and finish 2nd again.

It's off to III in canada for me!

Well, for one season, at least. :-)

It's just nice to be out of my boring series.

With me clinching 4th place, this means there will be two FOFCers in III in Canada next season!!! GO US!!!! :)

I don't count Guelph Apocalypse in there, since he barely posts, and now he's facing a qualifier to stay in III... :p

Guys, I nearly got promoted to D2.... Geez, fortunately I didn't.

We finish tied for 1st with 27 points but I was leading at halftime. The winner of our div is the lowest seeded D3 winner but will play a locked team in the qualification game... And none of us were really prepared for D2. I am hardly even prepared for D3 now since I sold 80% of my midfield to buy my French National player...

Vince - According to this site you will be replacing the Denver Dogs of IV.3

http://www.lysator.liu.se/~frid/hattrick/HTCR/data/8_full.html#594

Site was accurate for mine and lytics relegation matches so I assume it's correct all the way thru.

Welcome to IV.3 Vince, the 5th toughest in Div IV.

It's kinda rough on FOFCers, airhog and illinifan both lasted only a year. Hopefully you'll have better luck!

IV.43 for me - 3rd toughest series in div 4 last season (I think)

It says V.140 for me going up. Lot's tougher than last weeks prediction of V.61, which is really fine by me. From a cursory inspection of the teams I should be able to hang there, which is nice.

I made a stop in IV.36 before I was demoted back to V. September and Bolivar were both there when I was there in season 20.. Izirim is the team that beat me in the relegation match, but he's leaving to promotion.

Looks like I'm in a pretty good amount of trouble as well, The herd...should be a bit more interesting than not losing a match all season, though :)

Any advice, YoSoySean? http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/smile.gifDepends how good your team is. Cyclones and Reseda are the favorites to win the series... oh, and make sure to injure Longoria ;)

It's off to III.4 for me. I haven't done any heavy duty recruiting yet, but hopefully I'll have a shot at 6th or higher...

Edit: It appears that FOFC's own NAIWF is playing a qually to get into III.4 also. I hope he wins!

I know! Exciting! Even though I was hoping for an "easier" III series, and even knowing my chances of sticking are remote, it's going to be fun in an active league with owners I've actually heard of...

I'm moving up along with the top division winner in IV too, Black Caps, so no easy ride there either.

Well, I've got a qually to stay in III.3, and I'm not sure it wouldn't be in my best interest to bump down seeing as how I have won't be able to do better than 6th next season with the new promotees. I'm not sure I can take another financial hit like I did this season with my payroll.

I've got a couple tricks up my sleeve left. I think I can stick around, given a little luck. And I don't want half of the US hattrick world burning my house down quite yet.

And I think Black Caps was in III.16 before, so it may be even more active :)

Good luck, pick your PICs wisely :)

SLIA has to play a quali to stay in IV. The V team I play put up the second highest NSI in V last week. Might have been a MOTS. But whatever, bad luck for both of us--Both of our teams are a lot better than they should be for our current positions LOL! I somewhat like my IV series, and will love to get REVENGE against those I lost to.. so.... yea..... GO SLIA!

There is a walkover next season so you only need to finish better than the other autopromotee to iv.60.

Jacksonville Kickers move from v.85, to iv.53 with todays 3-2 win over Fairfax Fizz.

On a side note, didn't Fairfax Fizz used to be owned by an FOFCer?
The team will be reset anyway, hasn't logged in since 8/16.
This week will make it 7 weeks of inactivity for this team.

Did the consecutive promotion thing, D.III should be fun...

At least it's 4 new teams in mine, so if I beat the other promotees I'll get 5th.
